All new! A natural weight loss and appetite control system made from 100% organic Moringa!

Zija’s Moringa-based health supplement system combines incredible natural beverages for pure nutrition, a beverage/capsule combination for increased energy and improved weight management, and a soothing tea for cleansing and detoxifying the body.

This total system has proven to be phenomenal in our initial focus groups. In combination with a healthy lifestyle and diet, this system could be the key to putting your body in balance. How many of the people you know think they should lose a few pounds?

How many are actually overweight or actually obese? What if they had a system in place that helped them track their success, and informed others - possibly even prospects - of their success?

The Nutrients of Zija


Zija Moringa's antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds work best when combined with other antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents. Nature allowed for a better efficacy when combined, a synergy of the compounds being much more effective than a single compound. Moringa contains the following antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds or compounds with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory characteristics.

Antioxidant:
Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Vitamin K, Vitamin B (Choline), Vitamin B1 (Thiamin), Vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), Vitamin B3 (Niacin), Vitamin B6, Alanine, Alpha-Carotene, Arginine, Beta-Carotene, Beta-sitosterol, Caffeoylquinic Acid, Campesterol, Carotenoids, Chlorophyll, Chromium, Delta-5-Avenasterol, Delta-7-Avenasterol, Glutathione, Histidine, Indole Acetic Acid, Indoleacetonitrile, Kaempferal, Leucine, Lutein, Methionine, Myristic-Acid, Palmitic-Acid, Prolamine, Proline, Quercetin, Rutin, Selenium, Threonine, Tryptophan, Xanthins, Xanthophyll, Zeatin, Zeaxanthin, Zinc.

Anti-inflammatory:
Vitamin A, Vitamin B1 (Thiamin), Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Arginine, Beta-sitosterol, Caffeoylquinic Acid, Calcium, Chlorophyll, Copper, Cystine, Omega 3, Omega 6, Omega 9, Fiber, Glutathione, Histidine, Indole Acetic Acid, Indoleacetonitrile, Isoleucine, Kaempferal, Leucine, Magnesium, Oleic-Acid, Phenylalanine, Potassium, Quercetin, Rutin, Selenium, Stigmasterol, Sulfur, Tryptophan, Tyrosine, Zeatin, Zinc.

There are over 46 antioxidants and 36 anti-inflammatory compounds all naturally occurring in the Moringa plant. This is why we refer to Zija as having supreme antioxidants and supreme anti-inflammatory characteristics. When consumed as part of the Zija beverage, the efficacy is much greater than if consumed separately or from synthetic sources.

Health Experts Recommend Moringa


The "Miracle Tree" and "The Tree of Life" are two of the most common descriptions of Moringa Oleifera.

Biochemists call it the most nutrient-rich plant on the face of the earth, and the Zija beverage is being heralded as the most beneficial health supplement drink available today. Zija International is the first and only network distribution company to tap into Moringa's dramatic nutrition via patent-pending formulation and manufacturing processes.

Kosher and Halal certified, Zija provides consumers with a 100 percent natural source for over 90 verifiable vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids and amino acids in addition to a wide range of antioxidants and anti inflammatory agents that are completely bio-available and absorbable.

The Moringa tree has great use medicinally both as preventative and treatment. Much of the evidence is anecdotal as there has been little actual scientific research done to support these claims. India's ancient tradition of ayurveda says the leaves of the Moringa tree prevent 300 diseases. One area in which there has been significant scientific research is the reported antibiotic activity of this tree.

This is clearly the area in which the preponderance of evidence - both classical scientific and anecdotal evidence - is overwhelming. The scientific evidence has now been available for over 50 years, although much of it is completely unknown to western scientists. This tree is truly a “miracle” tree offering hope; nutritionally, medicinally and economically to devastatingly poor 3rd world countries. It has just recently begun being used as a supplement in a juice form and in powdered leaf tablets.

The Moringa tree is packed with vitamins, minerals and even protein and grows wild in several tropical and sub-desert areas around the world. Natives of these regions have been using the tree, it's leaves and seeds for thousands of years to prevent malnourishment, purify water and treat many different ailments and diseases.

Miraculous Moringa


The Moringa Oleifera - often called the drumstick tree - has been a part of Indian cuisine for decades. Added to mutton curry, or dhall curry, the leaves from the tree are said to add a different flavour to food. The good news is that apart from its taste the miracle tree may be the answer to malnutrition.

Dr Samson Tesfay, a Pietermaritzburg-based UKZN scientist, said after two years of research he found the plant to be highly nutritious.

“Apart from its medicinal properties, the leaves are amazingly nutritious as they possess, gram for gram, three times as much potassium as bananas, seven times the vitamin C content of oranges, four times the amount of calcium in milk, twice the amount of protein in milk and eggs, and four times the amount of vitamin A found in carrots.” A researcher at Horticultural Science Department Tesfay, who completed his thesis last year on avocados as a source of energy and antioxidants, was asked to conduct laboratory tests on the moringa seeds.

“The leaf powder is given to children suffering from malnutrition and promotes lactation in breast-feeding mothers as it contains all 8 essential amino acids,” said Tesfay, originally from Ethiopia.

Tesfay said the plant was indigenous to the Western world, but was common in the Indian communities.

“Even though the plant is available is West Africa, Indian communities tend to grow the plant in their homes right here in Durban.”

Tesfay said he enjoyed eating drumstick leaves in a curry or a salad. “They can be eaten raw or cooked, and can be used in the form of a tea.” He said most interesting about the plant was that every part of the tree was edible.

“While the leaves are used for its nutritious benefits, the seeds are used for producing bio-diesel and cooking oil. Certain rural areas use the plant for water purification.”

Tesfay is currently collaborating with the iLembe District Municipality, for plans for a Moringa plantation project.

The programme seeks to build the capacity of small-scale emerging farmers, empowering them to grow Moringa trees, harvest the pods and sell them for biodiesel processing. “It is still in the pipeline.”

The drumstick tree native to India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Afghanistan, now grows in tropical areas in West Africa and South America. In the Ayurvedic system of medicine it is said to cure or prevent around 300 diseases.

Other benefits include an anti-cancer potential, lower high blood pressure and it has antibacterial properties.

It is also used to reduce inflammation caused by rheumatism and arthritis, and a paste is applied to the forehead to stop headaches and joint pains.
